[Some time later, Zell wanders past the lake, comng up to the porch. Waving her arm, he smiles at her.]

Broughtchu somethin'!

[dicey]

[she's lying on her back on the deck, a picture of teenage angst]

Thanks.

[combatking]

You're welcome. [Plopping down next to her, he lays down next to her, handing her the arm.]

[dicey]

[she takes it from him, lying it across her stomach]

... This sucks.

[combatking]

It sounds like it does.. so are you gonna talk to him or let him talk to you?

[dicey]

I think I'm going to wait a little bit and then, like. Text him or something.

[combatking]

[He put his arms behind his head, nodding.] Sounds like a good plan. So's the porch where you go to think?

[dicey]

It is today.

[she sighs]

I don't know how to fix things with Hanna, and Pitch is confusing the fuck out of me. Is there a nice and polite way to say "what's your deal?"

[combatking]

Hmm.. [A pensive look comes over him.] Is he sending you mixed signals? Ah crap, asking 'what's your damage?' Is probly just as bad. I guess you could try a asking what's your deal in a polite tone?

[dicey]

Mixed signals sounds like a romance thing. Gross.

[combatking]

Hah, ew! ..It can mean lots of things, though! Like how innuendo isn't always dick jokes.

Ok rephrase, is he confusing you with his demeanor towards you?

[dicey]

I'm not giving details.

I guess I'll just go with the flow. That's fine with me.

[combatking]

I knooow, Pitch stuff is seeecret stuff.

Thw flow is a pretty good way to go, unless it starts to bend you the wrong way, then fight the hell out of it.

[dicey]

Yeah, I'll totally fight him if I need to. Which I probably will, since I'm pretty sure he still wants to go after Hanna.

[combatking]

You know, for not understanding sentient emotions very well, he sure does love vengeance..

[dicey]

Vengeance is easy.

And who says he doesn't get emotions?

[combatking]

Not 'doesn't get'.. Somewhere 'round the way he or someone said he didn't understand people's emotions.

[dicey]

[she thinks about this]

... Yeah, I can see that. For some of them, anyway. He told me he thinks love is useless once.

I wonder if he'd answer me if I asked him how he sees emotion.

[combatking]

Probly. I think you or Rip have the best chancea getting an answer from him on that one.

[dicey]

[a week ago she would have denied that, but...]

... Maybe.

[combatking]

[Silence hangs in the air.]

Want to go swim in the lake?

[dicey]

I don't want to leave the house until I talk to Hanna. That's not weird, is it?

[combatking]

Not really, no. Shows you're worried and care about the outcome, you know? Some people take long walks when they're thinking, some people just sit.
